The sample selection model: Application on the farmers’ decision of rice acreage

© 2017 by the Mathematical Association of Thailand. All rights reserved. This study explores the estimation and inferences of a sample selection model with ordered-multinomial response outcomes. The model consists of two equations, namely, ordered response and regression equations. The estimation of...
